Catch up with friends, explore your interests and get where you need to go, with community participation and transport support.
Feel more comfortable visiting somewhere new or joining an activity, with someone beside you who understands when to offer help and when to give you space.
Spend time with familiar faces and get to know new people through shared interests, local activities and the cultural communities you feel part of.
Make time for what you enjoy, whether that’s swimming, browsing the markets or finding a local group where you can put your interests into practice.
Perhaps there’s a class you’ve been meaning to try, a friend you haven’t seen for a while or a favourite spot you’d like to visit more often. We start with what interests you and work out how to help you get there.
Our Community Access support gives you a say in where you go, what you do and how involved your worker is. If trying something new feels daunting, we can take it gradually, giving you time to find your feet and decide whether it’s for you.
An outing is easier to enjoy when you feel comfortable with the person coming along. You can chat naturally, explain what you need and change your mind without feeling awkward.
We consider your preferred language, cultural background and personality when matching your worker. Whether you’re attending a cultural celebration, meeting friends or going somewhere unfamiliar, we want you to feel confident that the person beside you respects how you choose to take part.
Being part of your community can mean different things to different people. We’ll help you take part in activities you choose, with the assistance you need to join in comfortably and enjoy the experience.
Getting from home to your destination is an important part of making plans. We’ll discuss your travel needs and arrange support for agreed trips, so you know how you’re getting there and back.
A calmer morning, a manageable home or getting out more often? Let’s talk about the difference a helping hand could make for you.
